This strategy is named “Trend Following Strategy Based on Price-Volume Integration”. It considers both price and volume indicators to determine trend direction and generate signals aligned with price-volume forces.

The trading logic is as follows:

First calculate the 5-day moving average of price and 15-day moving average of volume.

When the 5-day price moving average goes up and the 15-day volume moving average also rises, it signals synchronized price-volume upthrust to generate buy signals.

When the 5-day price moving average declines, or the 15-day volume moving average declines, existing long positions will be closed.

The advantage of this strategy is jointly using price and volume changes to judge trend direction. Only when both point to bullishness will long entry be triggered, effectively filtering false signals.

But parameters of moving averages need optimization and tuning to match different products’ characteristics. Stop loss is also crucial to reduce single trade loss risks.

In conclusion, properly integrating price and volume indicators can improve trend trading strategy performance. But traders still need to watch more market information, maintaining flexibility to adjust strategy parameters based on actual conditions.
